Stuff I Wish For, Dreams I Dream
melted Absolut in a vodka bottle
a popsicle of frozen time a 3-D picture of thunder a coffee-mug of crushed diamonds a Trojan Horse full of M&Ms, lost illusions in a glass bottle a fire-breathing wooden dragon a happy clown a crystal angel on a motorbike a sun that never rises an empty Pandora's Box a fire that burns underwater a first kiss in a summer rain super-glue for a broken heart a spaceship full of squids footsteps in the sands of time a graceful swan of never a love song for a vampire an H-bomb to detonate in my skull wild horses to ride over the hills a star to hold in my palm a rear-view mirror to see Hell with a time capsule from the island of Atlantis a never-ending story a silver platter of mice and angry grapes clean underwear a banana from the monkey on my back a second-hand shop that sells dreams and memories a figurine of Buddha jumping over a wall a bed of 99 black roses a molatov cocktail on the rocks a tattoo of Death doing the Macarena a near-life experience a reason not to kill myself a dream that never ends a love that never dies |
